From the episode

fringe top 20. Like, that's kind of where my mind kind of settled... he's still a really young quarterback, right? Like, when you compare him to someone like Michael Penix, Michael Penix, what? He's 26, 27 years old already. Tyler Shuck, 26, 27 years old already... J.J. McCarthy actually is a young quarterback in terms of his actual age.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

McCarthy projects as fringe top-20 QB; youth advantage over Penix and Shuck

Mark Sanchez projects McCarthy as fringe top-20 quarterback; notes his young age (actual age, not just experience) as an asset compared to peers like Michael Penix and Tyler Shuck who are already 26-27 years old. McCarthy missed his entire rookie year to injury but has shown ability to play aggressive and throw downfield effectively, which aligned well with the Texans defense's vulnerability to explosive plays in Week 7.
